Specialists in Lime Plastering in Lancaster
At AP Plastering, we specialise in lime pointing across a wide variety of masonry façades. Whether replacing decayed original pointing or carefully removing inappropriate and damaging cement mortar, our expert team ensures that every project is completed with care and precision. Lime pointing plays a vital role in preserving the breathability and permeability of buildings, making it an essential technique for maintaining the integrity of historic structures. By using traditional methods, we enhance the durability and aesthetic value of your property, ensuring it stands the test of time.
With extensive experience working with lime mortar, AP Plastering provides tailored solutions for each lime pointing project. We conduct thorough testing of original mortar to create samples using various sand grades, collaborating closely with architects to develop effective repair strategies. This attention to detail ensures that our work complements the existing masonry while restoring its original charm and functionality. Our goal is to deliver results that blend seamlessly with the building’s fabric, maintaining its historical significance.
Choosing the right lime mortar is critical to the success of restoration projects, and at AP Plastering, we offer expert guidance to architects and surveyors in making these decisions. Whether the project calls for hydraulic lime, non-hydraulic lime, or lime putty, we carefully consider the building’s materials and environmental conditions to recommend the most suitable option. This collaborative approach ensures that the final result not only looks stunning but also performs exceptionally well in preserving the structure.
